Fifteen years into the lifespan of South Park and the show is still going strong. Or it is going full-bore, anyway; whether it is as strong as in seasons past is a regularly debated topic. Regardless, South Park still has the power to shock and amuse as it kicks sand in the face of popular American culture and life, and there’s a lot to be said for that.

Remarkably, the fifteen seasons have all been shepherded by creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, who continue to write, direct and voice each episode. Even more wild: as many know, those episodes are produced in the time span of only one week. The fast turnaround is a big part of what makes South Park such a quick responder to public events, and sometimes a shaper of public opinion.

On October 9, Comedy Central will air the documentary 6 Days to Air, which looks at the behind the scenes details of creating the show. The trailer for that is below, and as a bonus you can see Parker and Stone’s recent 60 Minutes appearance, in which they discuss their partnership, the show and their mega-hit Broadway outing, The Book of Mormon.

Here’s the 60 Minutes clip; the CBS site has a few other web exclusive clips.
